Well like the title says, I'm wondering what errors in memtest86 really mean. Basically I was testing some new ram I bought, at UNDER stock speeds, and got 130 THOUSAND errors. I have a funny pic of it if anyone wants to host it for me.
I saw another thread where someone suggested upping the vcore to solve the problem with errors. After that, I OCed the ram, and memtest86 now gets 2 errors in test 4, 3802 errors in test 5, and 1 error in test 7.
So I'm wondering is memtest even worth anything? Are the errors even accurate? If changing just the vcore and overclocking the ram creates less errors, I have to start wondering...
Ohh, and the system is seemingly stable despite these errors. Prime95 runs overnight without any problems.
